Perforated paper

Pre-cut or full tabs

Carbonless paper.

Note: The 96/4635/180 printer can print on precollated or ordered stocks, including ordered tabs. However, jam recovery is not supported with these stocks.

Paper width and printer performance

The width of the paper you use for your print job is directly related to the rate at which the 96, 4635, and 180 printer can print a job. The rate at which a job prints is the throughput speed and is measured in pages per minute (ppm). You will want to keep in mind the following information on the relationship of paper width to printer performance, when selecting paper for your applications.

The printer operates in different pitch modes. The pitch mode the printer uses for a specific print job is based on the paper size on which that job is printed. The following tables list the pitch mode boundary values, paper widths, and related printing speeds supported on the 96/4635/180 printer. These charts show that the shorter the paper width, the higher the pitch mode and the faster the throughput speed—higher pages per minute (ppm) rate. (“Pages per minute” is synonymous with “impressions per minute.”)

Table A-1.	Throughput data: 96 printer
Pitch	Paper width	Speed
5	7.4 to 12.12 in. / 188 to 308 mm	96 ppm
4	12.12 to 15.31 in. / 308 to 389 mm	77 ppm
3	15.31 to 17 in. / 389 to 432 mm	58 ppm

Table A-2.	Throughput data: 4635 printer
Pitch	Paper width	Speed
8	7 to 7.4 in. / 178 to 188 mm	154 ppm
7	7.4 to 9.01 in. / 188 to 229 mm	135 ppm
6	9.01 to 10.19 in. / 229 to 259 mm	116 ppm
5	10.19 to 12.12 in. / 259 to 308 mm	96 ppm
4	12.12 to 15.31 in. / 308 to 389 mm	77 ppm
3	15.31 to 17 in. / 389 to 432 mm	58 ppm
